These are targeted states, NOT HUMAN BEINGS listed with first and last names of elected officials. Bullseyes are used regularly by strategic companies in business meetings around the globe. Scope crosshairs are interpreted by most people to shoot and kill. My 6 year old could come up with something more convincing than this. Better yet, let the victim speak for herself on her interpretation of crosshair maps with her name listed as one of the targets. Oh wait, she already did...

people are really trying to defend the use of a bullseye vs cross hairs? the intent is still there, it is a target! trying to paint the dems as innocent and the conservatives as otherwise is just hypocritical nonsense.

"people are really trying to defend the use of a bullseye vs cross hairs? the intent is still there"...

Guess you just decided to skip over the part that indicated first and last names of people vs. states. Not one quote before you indicated dems OR conservatives until you 'painted' your own picture. If you're having difficulty trying to identify 'hypocritical nonsense' all you have to do is look in the mirror.

This “bull’s-eye” map is definitely not as specific as the “crosshair” map that Palin’s website had posted. The “crosshair” map targeted specific people in specific districts. This “bull’s-eye” map is simply indicating which states the Democrats may be able to win over the Republicans.
